Stuffed vegetables from Nice are typical of Nice. There are a multitude of ways to cook them, so there are many different recipes. However, there is a traditional basis. Like many other Nice dishes, they originated in modest culinary circles. Leftover meats were used, such as heels of ham and leftovers from cooked dishes like daube niçoise, or sometimes they were prepared without meat at all. As for vegetables, we used those from the Nice region and, by extension, from the Mediterranean basin.
